So, for these so called Christmas presents this year, I am attempting to wood burn. Now, I have never done this before, I might burn the place down, who knows? I do know that it shall at least be a valiant effort that might resort in the verdict of “stick with the painting”.

I don’t think it looks too terribly off, at least some people could tell who it was. It just makes me proud that it’s going to be there for all the lame people to gaze upon and think it’s some girl. I sort of ran out of time and just decided that it was good enough. Rather difficult to paint on a huge scale, especially when you have to fill in all those fricken holes.

For those of you who couldn’t tell, it’s beside M’s painting of The Suburbs album cover.

Now, don’t ask me why I attempted a watercolor painting of a face, when I can barely spew out a drawing of one, but I did. Thom Yorke just seemed applicable. I sort of dig the outcome, though it’s definitely an abstraction of him. I did originally start out with the intent of doing a close representation of him, I soon found out that it wasn’t happening; so I like to say that I intended for an abstraction from the beginning. I mean, can’t we all agree with that? I think so.
